What made the chipping work fail? Too large brush when removing paint?

I tried scratching it off with cocktail stick in places and brush in others, whatever way I tried, it ended up looking not to scale at all. I did apply the white paint by brush so may be I applied it too thickly, which didn't help.

What did you do differently afterwards?

I ditched the chipping fluid altogether, painted the whole thing white and added in the chips and wear by painting them on (as I did with the panzer III). I can't say I'll rush back to chipping fluid again...or I just need to know when to stop 'chipping' if i do use it it 🙂!

Album info

Panzer II from Kharkov
Second go at a winter camo, thought I would use chipping fluid (first four images).
Came out a total fail and so I repainted it (the rest of the images after repainting). Not a great end result but better than it sitting in the 'On Hold' section
